The “gate” is opened by the activity of pain signals traveling up small nerve fibers and is closed by activity in larger fibers or by information coming from the brain. ...

Hearing and Auditory Processing Basics
... 1. Outer ear (OE) – consists of the pinna and external auditory canal (meatus) which is responsible for hair cell secretion of cerumen (wax). The OE is responsible for localization and funnelling sound into the ear. Earwax protects foreign objects from entering the ear. Common diseases of the OE are ...

... 1. Impedance matching. Fluid in the cochlea is much harder to vibrate than air. If sound waves in the air struck the oval window directly, they would mostly bounce off. The ear drum picks up weak vibrations over a large area. The ossicles then act like a lever system, concentrating these movements t ...
